Ist hier mein Welpe.
« on: December 15, 2007, 03:37:18 AM »
Es ist ein Schäferhund!



-Inspired by Motorollin.

Mein Hund is actually much älter jetzt.  Das was a few Jahre ago.  Ironically, that toy in the background is one she would never touch until recently.  Now it is her favourite.

But isn't it "Das ist mein Welpe" in German?


Possibly!  I pick up a lot of bad German from my co-workers, some of whom are Germans who have been hier so long they speak in badly mixed German/Englisch. :crazy:

"Here is my puppy."  The way I understand it "Hier ist mein Welpe", which is the more obvious translation, is actually acceptable, but not proper.

Every time I think I have it figured out, I'm wrong!  I'm beginning to think German is more difficult than English!  Still way easier than Mandarin though. :crazy:

Never heard of it.  What is it?

I try to know at least five words in as many languages as I can.  Preferably, how to ask for a pint of beer, and say Thank You for it.

Yi bei piju.
Danke schön!
